Too cold for me, but I'm enjoying watching the the game on LHN--especially with the commentary by Moreland/Swindell.

I missed that. I've been watching UT baseball since the early 80s, but that one's got me stumped. I did hear Clemens mention Mike Brumley, the shortstop on the '83 team, but I don't know if he had a nickname. Perhaps someone else will know

 

[SabreHorn]

Only nickname I heard used for Brumley had to do with his stepmother (may have been his mother). I assure you that lady would make a freight train take a dirt road, and is the most beautiful "mother" one a Longhorn baseball player on the last 60 years.
